Milksharing- Traditions Old and New
Abstract
Milk Sharing in Islam: The primary source of legislation is Quraan, the holy scripture, followed by the Sunnah of Prophet Mohammad interpreting and applying the Quraan, then scholarly reasoning applying basic rules in obtaining religious rulings. Basic rules to direct reasoning and set priorities: Seeking simplicity. Preserving life. Preventing damage has priority over bringing benefit. Milk Sharing in Austria: Actual benefits have priority over possible benefits.Informal Milksharing or wetnursing happend throughout the history of humans. Only the last 100 years it became a matter of getting institutionalised. Milk banking was devoloped in Austria as part of a public health campaign. This presentation gives you a glimpse on the history of Milk banking in Austria, tells you the many ways how milk is shared currently in the heart of central Europe and gives you two short examples how mothers managed so their baby would receive human milk, when they were not able to. One adopted her child from a lay-mother, the other mother had to be in intensive care shortly after delivery. Brazil has a formal milk sharing system and an informal practice.Formal Milk Sharing was established during the 20th century with the organization of the Brazilian Milk Bank Network. Today it has more than 210 centers and is present in every state of the country. The Network: promotes health for women and children, generates and disseminates scientific and technological knowledge, integrates and builts partnerships with federal and private organizations. promotes and supports Breastfeeding; collects and distributes certified human milk. contributes to decrease child mortality rate contributes to install Milk Banks other countries. Cross breastfeeding is not recommended by the Secretary of Health in Brazil, and selling and purchasing human milk is forbidden by national law. There are few papers about cross breastfeeding in Brazil, but they suggest that this practice is very common although not recommended.

  • “I loved GOLD so much that you’d be happy to scream it from a mountaintop! I had a lot of scheduling and time restraints so I am so thankful for this virtual option. The vast array of speakers, the convenience of watching at my leisure and ability to earn CERPs was a great benefit. I have been able to immediately apply a lot of it in my role of public health lactation support.”
    Millie Goins, WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counselor
    GOLD Lactation Online Conference Delegate
  • “The GOLD audience is receptive, fun, engaged and excited. I really appreciate the kinds of questions I am asked and how receptive the audience is to the kind of presentation content I provide. Very few conferences want a presenter to do the off the beaten track material I like to present. I will keep coming back as long as GOLD will have me!”
    Alison K. Hazelbaker, PhD, IBCLC, FILCA, CST, RCST
    GOLD Lactation Online Conference Speaker
  • “Having participated as a speaker at the last two GOLD Conferences has been one of the highlights of my career. The GOLD staff is one of a kind. We not only worked hard together but also had a lot of fun doing so. I have made so many friends in such a short time, not only with my GOLD contacts, but also with so many dedicated and wonderful GOLD participants.”
    Dr. Frank J. Nice, RPh, DPA, CPHP
    GOLD Lactation Conference Speaker
  • “I love the flexibility and availability of your conferences, and with my director’s hat on – the cost versus pricey travel, accommodations, etc. and the flexibility for attendance with people’s busy schedules has been awesome. I think it’s a great model and you have perfected the technology to have it run off well.”
    Suzanne H. Campbell, PhD, RN, IBCLC
    Director and Associate Professor
    School of Nursing. The University of British Columbia
  • “Getting education out to people who can't manage to travel to distant locations or take time off work, or afford the childcare fees they would incur if they had to attend in person, is so important and the difference these GOLD conferences make is invaluable. I have minimal computer skills but the format for attending makes it so easy for me to enjoy the benefits of the conferences.”
    Elizabeth Common, Midwife / Lactation Consultant
    The Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne Neonatal Unit
